** Description changed:

- When i try to set a static ip in Network Manager (Intrepid Ibex) is
- impossible to save the setting of the netmask.
+ Reproduce:
+ 
+ 1. go to connection editor and create new wired connection
+ 2. in IPv4Settings tab, select "Manual" and add one address line
+ 3. use a netmask in the "Prefix" column (e.g. 255.255.255.0)
+ 4. close connection wizard, open again
+ 5. see that netmask is now in prefix format (e.g. 24)
+ 
+ Verify:
+ 1. go to connection editor and create new wired connection
+ 2. in IPv4Settings tab, select "Manual" and add one address line
+ 3. check that middle column reads "Netmask" now
+ 4. insert a netmask in the "Netmask" column (e.g. 255.255.255.0)
+ 5. reopen connection wizard and check that its still in Netmask format
+ 6. insert a prefix in the "Netmask" column (e.g. 24)
+ 5. reopen connection wizard and check that it was converted to Netmask format.
+ 
+ 
+ When i try to set a static ip in Network Manager (Intrepid Ibex) is 
impossible to save the setting of the netmask.
  
  I type 255.255.255.0 and press ok but, after that, when i go to verify
  the result i see that the netmask is chaged to "24". and of course it
  doesn't work.
  
  I upload a video on youtube to explain better:
